    Four bags of garden waste in the car... washing on line, so need to change and head off to the tip/farmers market.

    Gardening didn't actually take that long (there's more to do, but this is the stuff that had been bothering me) so I don't know why I put it off for so long :rolleyes:. I should probably try to get the mowing done today too.
  • Morning all - we have sun again so I am going to go outside in the garden and enjoy it - well thats the plan at the mo!

    I couldnt believe all the post from when I logged off but was pleased to see they were all in a good cause and not your usual drunken behaviour:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    fedup good to see you are feeling a bit more positive today -excellent advice from greenbee, pigpen and the others last night - mark the calender this is the start of a better time for you! xxx

    MOAM love and hugs for your lost dreams honey - not quite the same but I do know exactly where you are coming from. I would have loved children.

    Triker you are amazing at night - what a pile of work you manage - for DD - manicure,pedicure, facial, haircut, massage, reflexology, digi camera, concert tickets, jewellery - if you are having problems with her attitude then I wouldnt give her the lessons yet - maybe at christmas if she improves?

    3 STARS ALTOGETHER PLEASE,going to get the kids working now to get the other 2 stars by the end of today


    TOOTS.... I have told DD1 that I want to have Little D at least one or two nights a week she is moving to Sheffield,what has upset me so much is that she has given up her hairdressing apprenticeship which she promised us she would finish,she has very little in the way of exam results....she does model and do Photography...in fact she has a meeting with a nightclub tonight with the prospect of herself and boyfriend taking photos there 3 nights a week (2 nights her boyfriend would do and DD1 would do Monday nights) so this is 1 night I would need to have Little D.I just feel she isnt thinking things through in the long run and is throwing her life away......no point telling her though as she wouldnt listen.

    Love to all
